STOCKHOLDER COVENANTS

Section 3.1.            Noncompetition.

(a)           In view of each Stockholder’s importance to the Company, each Stockholder hereby agrees that the Company would likely suffer significant harm from such Stockholder’s competing with the Company during such Stockholder’s Employment Period and for some period of time thereafter.  Accordingly, each Stockholder hereby agrees that such Stockholder will not, without the written consent of the Company, during the Employment Period and the Coverage Period:

(i)    form, or acquire a 5% or greater equity ownership, voting or profit participation interest in, any Competitive Enterprise; or

(2)           for which such Stockholder had direct or indirect managerial or supervisory responsibility at the Company, or

(3)           which calls for the application of the same or similar specialized knowledge or skills as those utilized by such Stockholder in such Stockholder’s activities at the Company, and, in any such case, irrespective of the purpose of the activity or whether the activity is or was in furtherance of advisory, agency, proprietary or fiduciary business of either the Company or the Competitive Enterprise.

(b)           For purposes of the Stockholder Covenants, a “Competitive Enterprise” is a business enterprise that engages in, or owns or controls a significant interest in any entity that engages in financial services such as investment banking, public or private finance, financial advisory services, private investing (for anyone other than such Stockholder and members of such Stockholder’s family), merchant banking, asset or hedge fund management, securities brokerage, sales, lending, custody, clearance, settlement or trading.

(c)           For purposes of the Stockholder Covenants, the term “Coverage Period” means the period beginning on, and including, the Date of Termination, and ending on the date that is ninety (90) days following the Date of Termination.

(d)           For purposes of the Stockholder Covenants, the term “Date of Termination” means (i) in the case of a termination of employment by a Stockholder, the date that is ten (10) business days after the delivery of written notice of such Stockholder’s termination, or such earlier date as may be determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and (ii) in the case of a termination of employment by the Company, the date on which written notice is delivered by the Company to such Stockholder (unless the Company in its sole discretion specifies another date of termination in such notice).

(e)           For purposes of the Stockholder Covenants, with respect to any particular Stockholder, the term “Employment Period” means the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the Date of Termination.

Section 3.2.            Nonsolicitation of Clients.

(a)           Each Stockholder hereby agrees that during the Employment Period and the Coverage Period, such Stockholder will not, in any manner, directly or indirectly, (1) Solicit a Client to transact business with a Competitive Enterprise or to reduce or refrain from doing any business with the Company or (2) interfere with or damage (or attempt to interfere with or damage) any relationship between the Company and a Client.

(b)           For purposes of the Stockholder Covenants, the term “Solicit” means any direct or indirect communication of any kind whatsoever, regardless of by whom initiated, inviting, advising, encouraging or requesting any person or entity, in any manner, to take or refrain from taking any action.

6

(c)           For purposes of the Stockholder Covenants, the term “Client” means any client or prospective client of the Company to whom such Stockholder provided services, or for whom such Stockholder transacted business, or whose identity became known to such Stockholder in connection with such Stockholder’s relationship with or employment by the Company.

Section 3.3.            Nonsolicitation of Employees.  Each Stockholder hereby agrees that during the Employment Period and the Coverage Period, such Stockholder will not, in any manner, directly or indirectly, Solicit any person who is an Employee (or was an employee of KBW at any time during the six-month period prior to any such solicitation) to resign from the Company or to apply for or accept employment with any Competitive Enterprise.

Section 3.4.            Transfer of Client Relationships.  During the Coverage Period, each Stockholder hereby agrees to take all actions and do all such things as may be reasonably requested by the Company from time to time to maintain for the Company the business, goodwill, and business relationships with any of the Company’s Clients with whom such Stockholder worked during the term of such Stockholder’s employment.

Section 3.6.            Stockholder Covenants Generally.

(a)           Each Stockholder’s covenants as set forth in this Article III are from time to time referred to herein as the “Stockholder Covenants.”  If any of the Stockholder Covenants is finally held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable (whether in whole or in part), such Stockholder Covenant shall be deemed modified to the extent, but only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability and the remaining Stockholder Covenants shall not be affected thereby; provided, however, that if any of the Stockholder Covenants is finally held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable because it exceeds the maximum scope determined to be acceptable to permit such provision to be enforceable, such Stockholder Covenant will be deemed to be modified to the minimum extent necessary to modify such scope in order to make such provision enforceable hereunder.

(b)           Each Stockholder understands that the Stockholder Covenants may limit such Stockholder’s ability to earn a livelihood in a business similar to the business of the Company.

(c)           Each Stockholder acknowledges that a violation on such Stockholder’s part of any of the Stockholder Covenants would cause irreparable damage to the Company.  Accordingly, each Stockholder agrees that the Company will be entitled to injunctive relief for any actual or threatened violation of any of the Stockholder Covenants in addition to any other remedies it may have.

7

Section 3.7.            Damages.

(a)           Each Stockholder acknowledges that such Stockholder’s compliance with the Stockholder Covenants is an important factor to the continued success of the Company’s operations and its future prospects.  Each Stockholder and the Company agree that if at any time such Stockholder were to breach any of the Stockholder Covenants, the damages to the Company would be material, but that the amount of such damages would be uncertain and not readily ascertainable.  Accordingly, each Stockholder and the Company agree that if such Stockholder breaches any of the Stockholder Covenants at any time, such Stockholder shall forfeit to the Company that number of his or her Common Shares that remain subject to the restrictions on Disposition under Section 2.2 of this Agreement at such time (it being understood that, for purposes of this Section 3.7, any Dispositions otherwise permitted under Section 2.2 at such time shall be prohibited with respect to the Stockholder) with a Fair Market Value at such time equal to the dollar amount (the “Liquidated Damages”) by which the Fair Market Value of all of the Common Shares held by the Stockholder at the time of such breach exceeds the original purchase price for such shares by the Stockholder.

(b)           Each Stockholder and the Company agree that the Liquidated Damages are reasonable in proportion to the probable damages likely to be sustained by the Company if such Stockholder breaches at any time any of the Stockholder Covenants, that the amount of actual damages to be sustained by the Company in the event of such breach is incapable of precise estimation and that such forfeiture is not intended to constitute a penalty or punitive damages for any purposes.  The forfeiture by such Stockholder of his or her Common Shares will not be construed as a release or waiver by the Company of the right to prevent the continuation of any such violation of such Stockholder Covenants in equity (including injunctive relief) or otherwise.

(c)           Each Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that the Liquidated Damages pursuant to this Section 3.7 shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any required forfeitures of awards that may be granted to such Stockholder in the future under one or more of the Company’s compensation and benefit plans.

Section 3.8.            Retirement-Eligible Stockholders; Employment Agreements.  In the case of any Stockholder whose termination of employment constitutes a Retirement, or any Stockholder who is party to an employment agreement with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, to the extent any provisions of such Stockholder’s Non-competition/Non-Solicitation Agreement or employment agreement (as applicable, an “Other Agreement”) relate to the subject matter of this Article III and conflict with the provisions of this Article III in any respect (including without limitation as to time periods or restricted activities), the relevant provisions of the Other Agreement shall control.
